It’s all about quality of life mate. Took me far too long to realise that.
Well done for identifying and acting on it.
Yeah, I noticed it before I moved to the UK actually, and I got a retail job offer after searching for a couple of months when I got here. Don't get me wrong I loved my staff and respected a lot of other colleagues in the business, but my line manager hadn't a clue how to motivate or people manage and made me feel like I couldn't take days off so I knew I needed to pack it in.
I left my last job on Thursday last week and interviewed for this one on Friday. Funny how things work out.
Retail hours are sh*te, got my own Independent store and I find myself always there..
I’ll be making changes this coming months too where I’m only doing 4 per days week.. need more family time..
My Achilles heel is staff..
Have to agree with everyone in regards to reliable workers though, found it very hard to recruit in my last role. I think some of it is the fact that so many big business F**k people over with sh*t hours and sh*t contracts and then everyone gets tarred with the same brush.
